		<description>I wonder if the writer is aware that the Republican party has undergone a dramatic transformation since the 19th and early 20th century.  It hasn&#039;t been the &quot;party of Lincoln&quot; for quite some time.  Please explain, for example, how the party&#039;s embrace of conservative religious groups has advanced the interests of women in the past, let&#039;s say, 30 years.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;none of the real feminists see her as a real woman. &lt;/blockquote&gt;

God, it doesn&#039;t get any more least-common denominator than this lackey.

Define &quot;feminist&quot; you freak of nature. I grow weary of your stupidity, and so I directly challenge you to define that term before you try this silly-ass elementary-school nonsense again. And when you&#039;re done, Tiny, with defining a feminist, which should take you a few weeks, come back and define &quot;real&quot;. Then come back here after 6 months or so of really difficult philosophy and try persuading us to concede to your house-of-cards argument.

You obamabot boobs are going to have to learn to argue with adults or be silenced by your own abject ignorance.

Come on botboy, Freedumb, take me on. I dare you...

Double dare you, goober.</description>

		<description>Absolutely right on target again, Peggy Sue. Here&#039;s a snippet from womensnews.org calling W to task for his low numbers of women in his inner circle:
&lt;blockquote&gt;(WOMENSENEWS)--President George W. Bush is appointing dramatically fewer women to executive branch political posts than Bill Clinton did early in his administration, reversing a trend toward increased representation of women at all levels of government over the past several decades.

So far, just 69 of the president&#039;s 264 nominations requiring Senate confirmation are women, or 26.1 percent, according to analysis of data from the Brookings Institution&#039;s Presidential Appointee Initiative.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Well, guess what? That 26.1 percent that is so horrible is slightly HIGHER than what Obama has appointed. And for the czar positions--the ones that That One can do what he wants for because he doesn&#039;t have to worry about any Senators suggesting that maybe he ought to include women--are about 10% women. Prime Obot, you can preach all you want about democrats representing women, but what they are saying and what they are doing are two very different things.</description>

		<description>This might surprise you but I don&#039;t take orders from &quot;real&quot; feminists.  Or anyone else for that matter.

And so-called feminist organizations should be hanging their heads in shame.  They participated in Palin slamming, jumped ship easily from Hillary&#039;s campaign and made a mockery of feminism [which applies to all women, not merely Democratic women].

No.  I won&#039;t vote for Palin because I don&#039;t think she&#039;s ready.  Anymore than I thought Obama was ready [and he&#039;s certainly proving the point].

But that won&#039;t keep me from looking at Republican woman or third party candidates or any Democratic woman who has a chance to wiggle herself through the obvious sexism that was hiding all along in the Democratic bowel.

So, put your smirky, happy face on the shelf. The Dems lost me and many women by their sheer arrogance and misogyny.  And they won&#039;t easily win our loyalty, our boots on the ground or our money back.</description>

		<description>Peggy. I concur with you.  When I witnessed the made up racist lies they told and the trashing of Hillary &amp; Bill I left the party for good.  I am an African American and I despise Obama for what he did and will never support him.  BTW it was the southern dems who tried to stymie Civil rights legislation.  It was the Repubs like Dirken who stepped up to the plate.   For that I will always be grateful since I was directly involved in the struggle.</description>

		<description>Great post Peggy Sue, thank you.

Just imagine how much greater HRC&#039;s standing in America would be  if she had broken away and not supported Obama, not as a competing candidate but as a citizen.  She and Bill knew enough about this POS to send him down the Nile...or did we actually have to allow the current debacle to play out in order to prove the point of The Fraud&#039;s Idiocy Presidency?  &quot;Was HRC in a no-win situation&quot; a valid question?  I&#039;m sure many of her supporters would say so, but I don&#039;t.  If only she....</description>

		<description>To put it briefly:

I will never forgive let alone forget what the Democratic Party participated in last year, both in the primaries and the GE, the blind eye they turned to the rampant sexism and savage attacks against Hillary Clinton [one of their own] followed only by the disgusting attacks against Sarah Palin.

You can trot out all the pro-woman legislation you like but when a group participates in and encourages disgusting, sexist attacks against women, they are not female friendly.  And yes, no better than Republicans who took great delight in slicing and dicing HRC during the 90s.

So, hip-hip-horray.  The Dems proved themselves equally misogynist.

The Democratic Party has held &quot;choice&quot; over the heads of women for decades.  No more!  The Dems showed their true colors.  And for this woman, that&#039;s the end of the line. I lost all respect for the party of my birth, and they can no longer count on my vote.</description>

It&#039;s because the insurance industry loves America, silly.

		<description>Peggy Sue,

Real feminists are only asking that you don&#039;t vote for Sarah Palin because she is a nightmare. Apparently you agree, so I think we are on the same page.</description>

		<description>Standing ovation Buzz!
I respect the history of women, and the opportunities they opened for us. However, looking forward is the key.
My granddaughters are individuals, with varied interests and talents.
Their most important task is to pursue and earn their own success!
I am confident they will, and I am extremely proud of them!</description>

		<description>Well, thanks for a reasonable response. But I gotta say, in my view, if you claim to care about feminism and women&#039;s issues and also claim not to see any difference between the two parties, you really ought to read more of the political history of the past 50 years. 

As for Obamacare: yes, if you are right about skyrocketing prices and declining health care, then you will also be right about voters fleeing in droves. I don&#039;t think that&#039;s what is going to happen, though. And neither does the insurance industry and the Republican Party, who are all fighting this emerging bill as desperately as they possibly can. Ask yourself why.</description>
